Predominant Climate Exposure Strains - Thermal Degradation Testing Compared to Historical and Future Climate Scenarios
(Chapter; Conference object, 2020)The service life of a building or structure is often presumed to be 60 years. Products used in the building envelope are often covered by a facade material on the exterior side. Hence, the failure of these products is not ... -
Pressure Dependency of the Membrane Structure Parameter and Implications in Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO)
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2018)Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) can be used to exploit the mixing energy e.g. between river water and sea water. A PRO membrane must be highly permeable for water, whereas salt ions should be retained. Furthermore, the ... -
A proposed methodology for modelling the combined load of electric roads and households for long-term grid planning
(International Conference on the European Energy Market;2020, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)The number of electric vehicles (EV) is increasing rapidly, and it is not yet sure how the grid infrastructure will be built, and how this will affect the power system. One option for charging EVs is a dynamic wireless ... -
Public private collaboration in the context of zero emission neighbourhood
(Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)Purpose. This study aims to gain an understanding of success factors and barriers to public private collaboration in the context of zero emission neighbourhood. Design/Methodology/Approach. Qualitative research method: ... -
Requirements for representative models for comfort and energy simulations in districts
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter, 2020)The energy master planning process for districts requires an analysis of different scenarios, which include new construction to different levels of energy efficiency, major renovation of all or some buildings comprising ... -
Robust and reliable deep renovation by advanced prefabricated façade elements. Air-tightness performance and assessment of a demo case
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Deep renovation of the existing building mass is an important task to reach the target of energy efficient buildings and neighbourhood. However, the current renovation rate is only 1% of the European building stock each ... -
The Role of Machine Learning in Managing Uncertainty in Projects – A View on Early Warning Systems
(Proceedings of the European Conference on Management, Leadership and Governance (ECMLG);, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2022)Machine learning techniques deals with, among other things, pattern recognition in large amounts of data to identify trends and possible events in the future regarding a given topic of interest. Machine learning methods ... -
Schools on hold – how simple measures can help improving the indoor environment in schools
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)This work presents the lessons-learned from a Norwegian project called "Skoler på vent" – "Schools on hold" – which is aiming at finding simple and effective measures for improving the indoor climate in schools that have ... -
“SINTEF-TriPOD” in underground design – A demonstration for two projects in Norway
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2024)Many rock engineering projects today may face rock mechanics challenges such as particularly complicated profile or excavation plan, located near to existing infrastructure and thus pose a high risk to such structures, and ... -
Sound insulation properties of hollow box timber floors: a summary
(Chapter, 2024)Hollow-box timber floors are an efficient constructive option when long span is required. The industry has a strong interest in timber long span floors because they are a mean to make wooden constructions competitive in ... -
Sound insulation properties of single and double CLT walls
(Chapter, 2024)Cross laminated timber (CLT) elements have rapidly gained in popularity in Norway and other European countries. Experimental data and improved engineering tools are essential for the development of sustainable solutions. ... -
Spatiotemporal humidity variation in student housing
(Chapter, 2022)Modern, urban apartments are space-efficient, have bathrooms with no windows, and require energy-efficient ventilation with heat recovery. The requirements for exhaust ventilation rates for the kitchen and bathrooms are ... -
Structural reverberation time measurements on WOODSOL prototype
(Chapter; Conference object, 2019)The WOODSOL research project aims at developing urban timber buildings based on moment resisting frames. One of the key aspects when dealing with the sound insulation in the building system is the flanking sound transmission ... -

Ternary cement blends with Fly ash-Calcined clay-OPC: An evaluation on their early age and mechanical properties as binders
(Chapter, 2017)The synergetic effect of SCMs, fly ash (F) and calcined clay(C) in ternary mixes at 20% replacement was evaluated. It was found that due to the complementary water demand of F and C, pastes made of ternary blends of FC-OPC ... -
The Potential of Design Thinking for Tackling the “Wicked Problems” of the Smart City
(Chapter; Conference object, 2019)Cities’ transition to becoming ‘Smart Cities’ can be seen as one of the most complex and ‘wicked problems’ of our time; requiring cities to be able to make use of ‘bottom-up’ innovation and resources while managing a ... -
The RILEM approach to mitigate alkali aggregate reactions (AAR) in concrete
(Chapter, 2017)Development and assessments of test methods, to avoid deleterious AAR in concrete, have been the focus of three previous RILEM Technical Committees (TC) in the period 1989 to 2014. The 4th RILEM TC on AAR, TC 258-AAA, was ... -
